I am rheumatoid,
One with disease
Clamped into my bones
By the synovial swell.
I am disgusting,
One with sickness,
Weak from fat to skin
Weak from blood to bone.
I am lethargy
Disguised as laziness
By the painted sheets
They throw over me.
I am dependent
On other hands
To grip the nouns.

[ They think I'm lazy, they think I'm a liar.
They don't believe that one so young as me can a disease association with the elderly. It's not an elderly disease, it's and anyone disease. ]
